The first place Aren's group was shown by Silas was a guest room.
　It's a luxurious room to the extent that it's hard to believe it's a guest room, and to be honest, it's even more magnificent than the room in my former family home.

　Well, it's because the house was originally a house that had a substantial robustness or something like that.
　By the way, it is naturally incomparable to houses in remote areas.

It's a little intimidating. Or rather, isn't it too big for one person to use?
It's true that I'm used to living in that house for so long that I've gotten used to it. ...... It's a little too big for me.
"...... everyone use?
Well, you can do whatever you want with that. There's a surplus of room, so I've assigned it to each of you, but after that, it doesn't matter what you do. Oh, but as expected, not Allen.
"I'm not going to mix it up. Well, I agree with you about it being too big.

　Allen and the others are in the dining room.
　After checking out the room we were going to be staying in, we were led straight to it because it was the right time.

　It is also a typical place considering the interior design and size of the room. ...... However, the reason why you feel a sense of loneliness is because you are the only one sitting on a chair that is probably 20″ in size.

　Although I have only taken it lightly, it was enough to make me understand that Henriette was right.
　The same is true of this dining room, but it doesn't have a life of its own.

　It's kept clean, it's nice to look at, but that's about it.
　You don't get the sense that anyone lives here, and indeed, apart from the servants, it seems that only Henriette lives here.

　I also saw a number of familiar faces among the servants I saw as I was led around.
　Although I don't remember all of their names, it seems that Henriette has hired the people who worked at the house for her.

　Moreover, the expression on their faces is calmer than when they were at the house, indicating that they are fine to work here.
　However, I didn't doubt that from the beginning.

　It's enough to know that just by listening to what you just said earlier--

"Oh, I didn't realize I'd missed this earlier, but Henriette only came to live here relatively recently, didn't she?

　Suddenly, Allen asked such a question because he remembered.
　When I thought about what I just said, it was a chain reaction.

　When I told you that story, Henriette said she had just been thrown out on her own.
　Considering the time when Silas and the others quit, that means it's been less than a year.
　That had stuck with me earlier, but I had somehow missed hearing it at a bad time.

　And to that Henriette nodded back.

Well, it's after they come of age. It's a good thing that they are not so devilish as to let their pre-grown daughters live alone.
But if it's after you've come of age, I'd rather formally hand over the reigns of the family: ......?
"Although I've just come of age, I've only just come of age. The first thing I'm going to do, nominally, is to gain experience in governing this city.
When you say nominally, it doesn't seem to make much difference, does it?
It's true, and although I've been a part of it, I don't have the righteousness to cover up so much as I do. It's a good thing that this country is no different.
What does that mean?
I don't mind telling you what you want to know, in part, because I know you want to know. It's one person in particular that you want to know ...... but I'm sure you're curious about it too.

　So it was inevitable that Allen and the others couldn't help but look at each other.

　It's clear what Henriette is talking about.
　It is clear what Henriette is talking about, namely that she will definitely tell us about some, though not all, of the problems that the empire will have.

　If we're being honest, it's true that Allen was expecting it.
　But whatever her previous life was, she was born a princess of this country.
　But I didn't think she would throw that away, and in front of everyone.

"Let's not get confused, this is just Henriette's idea and advantage. I'm sure they're doing a pretty good job of it, but as it is, I don't know when they'll be able to solve the problem: ...... We're not even sure it's going to be solved in the first place.
"It's that complicated?
It's not that they're complicated or that they're incompetent, but they're not going to be able to solve the problem at this point in time, according to Henriette.
You mean, you want us to help you with that?
I'm not going to say that much. I'm not sure if this country has done anything for me, but I'm still a member of the marquis' family. I'll do my duty at least.
"...... information is acceptable?
At least for Henriette, it is. I don't know what's going to happen to this country at this rate. It's all about the country.
"I don't know what's going to happen to this country. ...... "Apparently, this is even more troubling than I thought it would be. ......
That's it.

　I mean, isn't this the kind of thing you can't go back on after hearing this?

　The same is true for the Kingdom's side, which is unable to cooperate with the Imperial side.
　You can still get by with Allen, Noel, and Milene, but Leeds is a bad idea.

　If the word gets out, even a former princess could be accused of treason.
　Dealing with the empire is rather natural to be so nervous.

　But as I look at Leeds, I see a powerful, determined look in her eyes.
　Is it to fulfill a purpose, or is it because the kingdom cannot remain uninvolved if something happens to the empire: ...... or.

　But whatever the reason, there is no doubt that they don't seem to be willing to back down.
　It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you're going to be able to get a good deal more than you think.

　There is one conclusion.
　Allen opened his mouth in a representative manner.

So, what the hell is going on in this country right now?　That's the reason why the atmosphere in that town was a little weird, right?
Well, yes. Most people don't know it, but they were in that town. Even the dullest of them would know something was wrong.

　They are probably that girl.
　Although it was obvious when they could block off the streets, they also seem to be worthy of being there.



　But that thought was blown away by Henriette's next words.

"Well, to put it simply, the Emperor has been assassinated.
"......?

　The unexpected words came out, and unintentionally Allen let out a stunned mutter.
　The same is true for Leeds and the others, and even Milene's eyes widened slightly to show surprise.

It's because of that that your general is dead, of course, but that's why the empire is still refusing to do anything despite the fact that this is the perfect opportunity. Even more than your country, this country is in turmoil now.

　I'm sure you're not going to be able to find a way to make your life easier, but I'm sure you're not going to be able to find a way to make your life easier.
